When speaking about his selection process Hunter O'Hanian wrote, "I wanted to assemble a group of works which would successfully work together to make a rewarding group exhibition for the visitor. I picked works that challenged me as a viewer – including some I did not fully understand but trusted the artist was on the right track. I wanted to present a variety of materials and processes. I looked for pieces which reflected contemporary ideas and concepts which are on my mind – and others – daily." Hunter O'Hanian has a long career in supporting visual arts and LGBTQ+ studies. He is the past Executive Director of the Stonewall National Museum and Archive and the College Art Association, the largest professional association supporting art historians and visual artists in the world. He is the past board chair of the Alliance of Artists Communities, the national membership organization for artists' residency programs.
